Knowing your Aladdin Cards

These are not just your typical playing cards that you always buy from your nearest convenient stores or “mama shops”. The Aladdin cards have unique back designs and the vintage looking Ace of Spades.

According to seasoned flourishers, they have been specially engineered to withstand Singapore’s high temperatures and nearly constant precipitation through the year. The final product possesses a “smooth finish” feel in the cards which make them feel like plastic but reacts like paper thus resulting in a truly unique deck.

The Aladdin cards are stiff and “snappy”, surprisingly thin, extremely smooth and able to withstand sweaty hands hence they will never stick together.

Although these cards are manufactured by the US playing card company, it would be hard to find such cards in the US! No wonder these cards are sought after by some of the top flourishers in the world.
